Re: The ability to select samples with your order from any 3...

I agree with you. My signature scent is Donna Karan's Cashmere Mist. I can't count the times I've become a walking salesperson for this luscious scent when I'm out and about. However, she does not offer a large enough travel size for Cashmere Mist. Other than carrying her bottle in my purse (which I won't do) so my girlfriends could test it on themselves, they have had to come over to my home to try it on or test what other samples I've chosen.. Naturally they love it, but ya' know.It's just not the same. I'd love to share the wealth with them by offering them a sample of their own. I live in a small farming town. Closest town offering Cashmere Mist or any decent fragrance is app. 20 miles away.

Re: We love discounts too! But, let's get creative: What other new benefits would you like to see fr

I would love a catalogue at the beginning of each season that shows all the trends/ sneak peaks of new releases. Yes, an actual paper catalogue mailed to my home! Inside there should be a coupon that you can use toward the purchase of one of the featured items in the catalogue, like 10-20% off any one item from this season's catalogue. Now that I think about it, it should be like a magazine/catalogue...articles, product launches, how to's, etc. I love to study makeup mags/catalogues over and over again, and plan my "must have" purchases for the season...plus a coupon to boot...heaven!

Discounts are da bomb but I agree with so many posters here on other things we could do!

here are my suggestions:

- I spend a lot of money at Sephora but I do not live in the US. Much of what you offer online has a time limit of like a week or two and often so many offers expire before I get to cash in on them! Would you consider making the timeline a bit longer on some of the coupons/ discounts offered?

- I have dark skin and more often than not the make-up 500 point perks cannot work with my skintone. Maybe for VIBs at least, you could give us the option of getting a full-size item of our choice but within a certain price range? LIke you could offer me a NARS blush, lipstick and/or shadow? or maybe a Sephora brand foundation, concealer and powder? Just an idea. and what about including brushes and tools as part of the perks?

- I know that Sephora staff often gets to try out certain products. I would like to hear their opinion on the skin and haircare products in particular. I trust their opinions as they are surrounded by beauty products and have tried EVERYTHING!

- I think the option of getting cash-back is a great idea too. This might actually benefit me more since I don't live in the US.

I would like to see better recommendations for things we might like based on our past purchases and our shopping list. Also, I would like to see quizzes to help determine what products are best for us.

I recently hit 100 points and the lady showed me what I could have gotton as a reward. I was disappointed to see that the products were literally sample sizes. I was like "Why am I saving 100 points, which basically is $100, for a sample?!" I decided to save my points. I'd suggest getting actual sized products instead of their sample sizes. Maybe for those who save 100 points can get 3 products that are full sized. This may sound absurd, but I think that if your saving 100points=$100 then you should be getting back something that isn't worth like $5

Re: We love discounts too! But, let's get creative: What other new benefits would you like to see fr

I agree. I think there should be bonus gifts for 1000 points too. At least please change the current 500 opi nail set.. I don't want that and have been to sephora 7 times and that's all they ever have. Yet for some of their best reward products, they were gone in a matter of days. ( Lancôme, fresh kit). I have well ver 1000 points. Hopefully will cash in on something worth it soon.

Re: We love discounts too! But, let's get creative: What other new benefits would you like to see fr

I also agree that getting better gifts with our points would entice me to shop at Sephora even more than I already do. I currently have 600 points and haven't been excited by the last couple of point perks.

Re: We love discounts too! But, let's get creative: What other new benefits would you like to see fr

I agree I think I have around 1000 points because either the minute amount of gifts available that I want are gone too quickly, or the majority of the time, the gifts offered are not something I particularly care for.

Re: We love discounts too! But, let's get creative: What other new benefits would you like to see fr

The gifts offered at 100 and 500 points should have more options from different line of products, since not everybody uses the same product, right? I have to reveal that I make a huge effort to buy everything from Sephora in order to accumulate all those points, but I am starting to notice other sites that offer free 2nd day shipping, free deluxe samples in such a nicer way. I am really thinking about changing to a different store because of the poor feedback/incentive for our loyalty to Sephora. How about some serious discounts, free shipping when you reach 350 points, more options to choose from when reaching 100, 350 or 500 points. Some of us makes even more points than that... Sephora should really be more generous with us. How about some pampering? I think you're the ones that should be getting more creative, not us...
